DRINK ME Sleep 1995
by request
biography
by Mike DaRonco
Being dubbed as "the quietest rock and roll ever made, " Drink
Me originally started as a drum and guitar noise duo in 1986 before
members Mark Amft and Wynne Evans stripped down to their acoustical
guitars a few years later. With the accompaniment of the accordion,
tambourine, kazoo and other instruments that require no electricity,
Drink Me took on their laid back minimal approach to country, folk, rock
and jazz on their 1992 self-titled debut album, courtesy of Bar/None
Records. With a single entitled "Cherry Pie" that followed in 1993 (not
to be confused with the Warrant classic under the same name) and a five
song EP on New York's Hello Recording Club the next year, Drink Me's
second full-length "Sleep" came out in 1995 with a number of theme songs
that revolve around everyone's favorite activity when the lights go
out: getting a little shut eye.
